There is always a risk when you are out of warranty and using non OEM parts, but I suppose there's no development without trying something new... I just want to give all the best for my cat and I suppose this product could be the one. If there's someone who have tried something else than original product, please tell how did you succeed with it.

Whats up guys, I just found this post. I recently had to replace my radiator and in doing so had to remove the inlet and outlet hoses on the intercooler. I guess this is cooled by the tranny fluid...anyway long story short i didnt reconnect the hoses properly and lost A LOT of tranny fluid on the driveway. I was able to find a description of where the fill port is on this forum. However, there were no pictures of where exactly the fill port was. I have attached this picture so it would be easier for everyone to find. Also somebody else in the forum, i can't remember who, made the following suggestion.
Dump the tranny fluid from the drain port and fill it up with new fluid once a quarter. Now your only going to get what is sitting in the transfer case i believe (I'm not an expert) but that should be about 3-4 quarts. If you do this even twice a year it will definitely help an older tranny. Like i said i'm no expert so anyone feel free to jump in. Also i used Castrol Mercon V when i refilled my tranny after dumping everything.
If you cant find the drain port for the tranny fluid then.....well i'll let everyone else jump in. Also it's a hex key for the fill port i believe its a T30.
